Well, it's meant to be printed. This, I think, cannot yet be performed on the remote system. So it's connected to the local system. I can't see any sense on saving that spool buffer on the remote system. If I would want to distribute it via FTP I would upload it accordingly. And then I certainly would need to use an account that is not anonymous…

OK, a bit more work needed! Whenever a TRAMP related buffer has the focus, GNU Emacs is in TRAMP mode and I have to break out of it by using the extra slash.
So no bug at all?

If my theory of relativity is proven successful, Germany will claim me as a German, and France will declare that I am a citizen of the world. Should my theory prove untrue, France will say that I am a German, and Germany will declare that I am a Jew.
